Aule Space signs binding SatDrive hardware contract with Dawn Aerospace
Aule Space contracted Dawn Aerospace to supply a customized SatDrive propulsion system for an autonomous rendezvous, proximity-operations and docking demonstration.

Evidence notes
- The agreement converts the companies’ earlier memorandum into a binding hardware contract.
- Aule’s spacecraft is intended to dock with a passive satellite that provides no cooperative docking interface or active rendezvous assistance.
- Dawn will deliver a nitrous-oxide-and-propene propulsion system ahead of the planned demonstration mission.
Company overview
Aule Space develops compact autonomous spacecraft that dock with existing satellites to extend their operating life, support inspection and assist debris-mitigation missions. Its architecture is designed to service targets without purpose-built docking interfaces.
